Ultimate Guide to Prepare NCM-MCI5.15 Certification Exam for Nutanix Certified Master in 2022

Q16. An administrator needs to deploy an application with a large amount of data connected via Nutanix Volumes.
Which two actions should the administrator take when designing the Volume Group? (Choose two.)

Use multiple subnets for iSCSI traffic

Enable RSS (Receive Side Scaling)

Enable thick provisioning on the Volume Group(s)

Distribute workload across multiple virtual disks

Q17. Refer to the exhibit.

An administrator configures Active Directory authentication as shown in the exhibit. Upon finishing setup, users are not able to log in.
What configuration change should be made to fix this issue?

Change leaps to https

Change the Directory URL to use an IP rather than a name

Change the plct from 389 to 636
D Change the Domain to use an IP rather than a name

Q18. An administrator needs to forecast infrastructure requirements for a new program and its associated applications. Prior to the projected start of the new program, all existing applications will be decommissioned.
How should the administrator perform this task?

Check the Disregard Existing Workloads radio button in the Runway scenario.

Check the Disregard Existing Nodes radio button in the Runway scenario.

Add up the recovered workloads and manually remove from the Runway configuration.

Power down the workloads during a maintenance window and run the Capacity Runway.

Q19. A customer has NearSync configured. When the administrator tries to restore a snapshot from 3 minutes ago, it is not available. The snapshots are happening at 15-minute intervals instead of at the 5-minute configured interval. When the protection domain was initially set up, the snapshots were happening at the expected 5-minute interval.
What should the customer do to enable the snapshots to happen at the expected interval?

Utilize Metro Availability to meet this requirement

Change the protection domain to use Async DR

Fix a connectivity issue because the protection domain reverted to Async

Configure the protection domain to take snapshots on 15-minute intervals

Q20. An administrator needs to replace the self-signed certificate on a cluster. Which two requirements must be met as part of the process? (Choose two.)

The cluster administrator must restart the interface gateway.

The signed, intermediate and root certificates are chained.

The existing certificate must be deleted prior to replacement.

The imported files for the custom certificate must be PEM encoded.

Q21. An administrator is responsible for the following Nutanix Enterprise Cloud environment:
* A central datacenter with a 20-node cluster with 1.5PB of storage
* Five remote sites each with a 4-node cluster with 200TB storage
The remote sites are connected to the datacenter via 1GB links with an average latency of 6 ms RTT. What is the minimum RPO the administrator can achieve for this environment?

0 minutes

15 minutes

1 hour

6 hours

Q22. An administrator needs to maximize storage potential in a six-node cluster. The container is configured with the following:
Post-process compression
Capacity deduplication
What should the administrator configure to increase space savings?

Erasure coding

Inline compression

Reserve capacity

Cache dedupe

Q23. An administrator is notified that a bare metal database server is down. This database server is being served storage using a Nutanix Volume Group. Upon investigating, the administrator finds that the disks in the database server that map to the vDisks in the volume group have gone offline.
What is causing this issue?

The Volume Group Load Balancer has been disabled.

Port 9443 is blocked in the server firewall.

Port 3260 has been blocked in the server firewall.

A CVM serving the Volume Group has gone offline.

Q24. An organizations Nutanix Cluster is based on VMware vSphere. The cluster is configured to download software updates automatically. The administration needs to verify and eventually upgrade VMware hypervisor via Prism Ul.
After logging in to Prism, the administrator receives the message shown:
No available versions for upgrade
What is causing the current state?

VMware support has expired, so downloads are not available.

vSphere binaries need to be manually uploaded.

The environment is running the latest vSphere version, so no update is required.

The cluster is unable to connect to reIease-api.nutanix-ccm:8D.

Q25. An administrator needs to make sure an RF3 cluster can survive a failure of two complete racks without negatively affecting performance. The current cluster configuration consists of the following:
* 30 All Flash Nodes: distributed 10 nodes per rack across three 42U racks
* Each node is configured with 20TB usable storage all flash (Cluster Total 600TB Usable)
* Current cluster utilization is 500TB storage
* Storage containers have Erasure Coding enabled
Which configuration changes should be made to make sure the cluster meets the requirements?

Expand the cluster to 50 nodes distributed evenly across 5 racks

Expand the cluster to 48 nodes distributed evenly across 6 racks

Expand the cluster to 60 nodes distributed evenly across 6 racks

Expand the cluster to 40 nodes distributed evenly across 5 racks

Q26. A system administrator needs to shut down an AHV node in a Nutanix cluster without causing service disruption. The administrator checks data resiliency and verifies that the cluster can tolerate a node down.
Which three steps should the administrator perform next? (Choose three.)

Q27. An administrator is configuring software only. Data-at-Rest Encryption on their Nutanix cluster. They are planning to deploy a third-party key management server (KMS).
Where should this server be hosted?

As a single VM on the Nutanix cluster

On hardware external to the Nutanix duster

As a clustered VM setup on the Nutanix cluster

As a single VM deployed on the host that contains the Prism leader CVM

Q28. An alert about RX errors on eth2 on a node is reported in the cluster. The administrator logs in to the CVM in question, checks the ping_* files in the data/logs/syststats folder, and notices intermittent ping loss.
The node in question has the following network configuration:

Which action should be used to troubleshoot without disrupting the VMs running on this node?

Replace the cable from eth2 to the switch

Remove eth3 from br0-up and monitor for new alerts

Check the port on the switch side for any errors

Enable balance-s1b on br0-up and monitor if a problem persists

Q29. A CEO asks the IT administrator to provide a list of required resources to protect current workloads and the two new SQL servers from a disaster. The Nutanix environment is managed by Prism Central.
Which option explains how to meet the CEO’s request?

In Capacity Runway, select Optimize Resources and select all VMs that must be protected.

Create a new project and assign the VMs to it to get compute and storage requirements.

Create a new scenario based on a new cluster based on a VM Profile and select Recommend.

Create a new Recovery policy by selecting the VM that needs to be protected and get hardware requirements.

Q30. Refer to the exhibit.

What should the administrator do?

Resolve all alerts and re-import the disks to make sure there is no service disruption.

Restart all CVMs for the cluster to check, confirm health and repartition and add the disks.

Reseat all disks immediately. If this does not help, reseat the nodes.
